Blogging through my iPod touch.

Yesterday night, I was thinking about my 'addiction' to 'blogging'.

Now, I call it an addiction because on an average, I'm writing about 3 entries every five days. Even though writing them takes me about 15 minutes per entry, posting them on my blog takes a lot more time because every time I go online, I tend to spend atleast an hour. Now, multiply that hour by 3 and them by six. It basically means that I spend around 18 to 23 hours a month blogging. To be very honest, I can nail about 2-3 chapters in physics or chemistry in that time. In simple words, blogging is taking just way too much of my time.

So, I contemplated on leaving it and doing some other 'worthwhile' things but, my mind told me that I couldn't stop writing because I have fun in doing so and that blogging is probably the only thing that I do for fun. I can't stop it!

Then my mind starting scouring it's depths for alternatives. How could I possibly reduce the time that I spent on blogging?

After about 5 minutes into it, my mind chanced on an 'Eureka' moment.

I travel in an RTC bus to get to school everyday. Few days ago, I started thinking about 'productive' stuff that I could do in that time. I finally settled on just whiling away time by writing 'notes' on my iPod. Yesterday, it struck me that I could use those 40-45 minutes on writing stuff for my blog. Writing on my iPod will surely take more time than erotic on the computer does but, that's okay because it's not like I am saving the world in the remaining time!

So, I decided that from tomorrow, I'll be writing from my iPod during the time I spend in the bus. Then I'll just send those 'notes' to my computer and copy-paste them onto my blog. That would take no more than 5 minutes.

I'd be saving almost 55 minutes every day if I followed that method.

Actually, I'm typing this from my iPod and am sitting in a bus. Apart from a trifling 'headache' because the bus's suspensions haven't been oiled, everything else is pretty good. I am able to maintain a pretty good speed while typing.

Anyways, this was my first post from my iPod. There are many more to come in the following days!
